Infrastructure

The new tariffs put on by Trump are bringing in about $70 billion per year and this could be used as seed money for new infrastructure programs but there is a pitfall. Recall President Obama's shovel ready program that never started. The main reason is that he expected the government to handle the work and that approach is too cumbersome. Trump would depend more an private contractors and use matching state funds plus the EPA would streamline the regulations to simplify the process.
